i'm not real fancy with what is value for money so i was hoping someone could help me out, i've been offered Acer veriton used government pc
INTEL CORE 2 DUO 2.3GHZ
4GB RAM
300GB HDD
DUAL LAYER DVD BURNER
5.1 SOUND
10 USB PORTS
WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL
FULL ANTIVIRUS & SECURITY
$400
curent system is
windows xp
1.25gb ram
intel(R) celeron cpu 2.4GHz
matrox mellennium G400 dual head
foxconn 648FXGMR motherboard

what i need from a computer generaly:
multitasking for firefox, 2 windows 20tabs each
google earth
powerpoint
word

mostly interent surfing and powerpnt would be good, i find firefox easily takes up 100% CPU when i'm surfing and constantly lags, it's silly but i have a dual monitor set up but my computer seems too slow to multitask!:mad:
ow and don't play games ):

any help would be much appreciated!

thank you

What is the graphics card offered.

So far so good, prety cheap for such set up, definately better than what you have now by a mile. i would get it. although if you really want you can get a nice set up for around 700-900$, which would be even better. but i think you just want ti for surfing, so as long as the goverment computer has reasonable GPU, i would say go ahead.
